Evil Invention

by MaSkEdSoUl   May 24, 2007


Hunger struck me
In the middle of the night
Do I eat?
Do I stay?
Do I fall fast asleep?

Forgettings uneasy
While sleeping's not in sight
Looking up at the ceiling
Thinking what I dread in life

Oh yes, I got
Its an evil little thing
Something tall
Something with a reflection

Some call it a mirror
I call it an evil invention.
Every time I walk past it
I take a glance

This evil thing
Is doing no good
All it brings is misery and pain
And the known
Low self-esteem

    Forgettings = Forgetting's

    Thinking what = Thinking Of What

    Oh yes, I got = Oh yes, I got It;

    Its = It's

    Back again. Yesterday the bell rang and I had to go to class.

    But as I was saying, your poem seems unfinished... it seems too open ended and questionable. That isn't a good thing...
    You need to first of all make your poem hard hitting, or at least the ending must be. You have to make sure that your poem has a reason for being written, of which you do have. I just think you need to add more emotion into this poem.

    Also, you need to add punctuation at the end of your lines so that people reading your poem will know what to do when they come to the end of a line instead of reading it all in one big "breath".

    All the same, good word use.

    5/5

    Its an evil little = It's an evil little

    First of all, the poem seems unfinished. Second of all, you seem to be missing

    I think it was a good poem. I didn't find it confusing. I know what you mean by a mirror being an evil invention. Some don't like what stares back at them. I think it was a lovely poem. Keep up the good work.
